MICROELECTROMECHANICAL (MEMS)

It is a technology of combining Electrical and Mechanical

components together on a chip, to produce a system of

miniature dimensions ..

By miniature, we mean dimensions less than the

thickness of human hair !!!!

WHAT ARE MEMS

(Micro-electromechanical Systems)

Fabricated using micromachining technology

Used for sensing, actuation or are passive micro-structures

Usually integrated with electronic circuitry for control and/or

information processing

HEALTH

The health is the level of functional or metabolic

efficiency of a living organism.

In humans, it is the general condition of a person’s

mind and body, being free from illness, injury or pain.

WHY MEMS TECHNOLOGIES ARE APPLY TO MEDICAL

FIELD?

Miniaturization.

Many medical instrumentations are expensive, bulky, heavy and require

experienced technicians to operate. This is partially due to the

component sizes and the analysis methodology. MEMS can reduce the

component sizes significantly and enable new analysis methods so

portable, highly-sensitive diagnosis tools would become possible

.

BENEFITS OF MEMS IN MEDIC AL APPLICATIONS

Small volume of reagent samples (like blood), required for analysis.

Low power consumption, hence lasts longer on the same battery.

Less invasive, hence less painful.

Integration permits a large number of systems to be built on a single chip.

Batch processing can lower costs significantly.

Existing IC technology can be used to make these devices.

Silicon, used in most MEMS devices, interferes lesser with body tissues.

Biomedical MEMS – deals “in vivo”, within the host body.

→ precision surgery

→ Biotelemetry

→ Drug delivery

→ Biosensors and other physical sensors

Biotechnology MEMS – deals “in vitro”, with the biological samples obtained from the host body.

→ Diagnostics

→ gene sequencing

→ Drug discover

→ pathogen detection and elimination

It is a diagnostic procedure which involves the introduction of a

flexible device into the lower or upper gastrointestinal tract for

diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.

Conventional endoscopes can be used to view only the first

third of the small intestine.

Require sedation of patient

Is an uncomfortable procedure

WORKING OF THIS

MAGIC PILL !

The pill is intended to be swallowed like any normal pill.

Once within the body, the pill's sensors sample body fluids and pick

up "meaningful patient data" such as temperature, dissolved oxygen

levels and pH.

The pill is expected to retrieve all data over a 12-hour period and

disposed off, once excreted.

This data is transmitted wirelessly to a card attached

to the wrist of the individual.

Smart pillA MEMS device that can be implanted in the human body.

Consists of

biosensors

Battery

Control circuitry

Drug reservoirs

The biosensors sense the substance to be measured, say insulin.

Once this quantity falls below a certain amount required by the body, the

pill releases the drug.

MICRO-SURGICAL TOOLS

•Present day surgeons operate within a domain restricted by the

mobility and control of the surgical tools at hand.

•MEMS surgical tools provide the flexibility and accuracy to perform

precision surgery.

Examples of microsurgical tools include:

•MEMS driven scalpel

•Precise control of the scalpel is an important requirement in any

surgery.

•MEMS piezoelectric motor helps to accurately position the scalpel.

•MEMS pressure sensors incorporated on the scalpel, so that it can

help to measure the force exerted on the area operated upon.

Accordingly, the scalpel can he handled.

•Ultrasonic MEMS cutting tool

•These tools make use of piezoelectric materials attached to the

cutter.

•It consists of microchannels to flush out the fluid and debris while

cutting.

•Can be used to cut tough tissues, like the hardened lenses of patients

with cataract 18

MEMS SKIN RESURFACING TOOLS

Though still not commercially available, MEMS tools have been found

to overcome many drawbacks present in the conventional techniques.

They can be used to remove raised skin lesions as well as lesions upto

certain depths.

These MEMS structures are packaged onto rotary elements and used

over the affected areas.

The debris can then be sucked out using a suction pump.

19

Page 20: Abba mems pepar

MEMS enables hundreds of hollow

microneedles to be fabricated on a single

patch of area, say a square centimeter.

This patch is applied to the skin and drug

is delivered to the body using

micropumps.

These micropumps can be electronically

controlled to allow specific amounts of

the drug and also deliver them at specific

intervals.

Microneedles are too small to reach and

stimulate the nerve endings, and hence

cause no pain to the body.

PATHOGEN DETECTION

AND ELIMINATION

These are micro/nano scale devices capable of detecting and

eliminating medical problems such as:

•Tumors,Life threatening blood clots ,Accumulation of scar

tissue,Arterial blockage,Plaque detection and Localized sites of

infection

Considerations before introducing the robots into the body

• The robot size should be smaller than the diameter of the

artery .

• The robot should not damage the arterial walls as it

traverses through it.

• The robot can be introduced into the body through the

circulatory system of the body.

• The femoral artery in the leg would be the most suited,

because it is a large diameter artery and is traditionally used

to introduce catheters in the body.

CONCLUSIONs

As MEMS technology reaches the biomedical field, complex,

implantable, tiny devices are emerging, whose goal is improved

healthcare. Life of the device, retrieving data out of the device and

drift resistance along with the body fluids remain the challenges to the

technology.Despite the great achievements recorded through the use

of these devices, many of them are not free from certain

complications such as device failure, attraction of harmful

microorganisms, rejection etc. Biocompatibility remains one of the

biggest hurdle for MEMS medical devices.
